On paper, the Seattle Seahawks and New Orleans Saints are a mismatch. The Saints are skilled offensively, but their porous defense keeps them from being a complete team.
You would never think that the Seahawks need trickery to fool the Saints since they are so bad on defense. But Seattle pulled one out of the back of the playbook anyway, and we’re never going to complain about that.
🚨 TRICKERY ALERT! 🚨
Wilson to McEvoy.
McEvoy to Prosise.

C.J. Prosise was a fantastic back at Notre Dame, and so far this year he’s proven to be a dynamic back in the NFL as well. This catch was tough even for the most seasoned wideout. As the Seahawks continue to be ravaged by injuries, they have needed players to step up and take bigger and bigger roles. Prosise is another great example.
If plays like this are working, the Saints are going to be in for one long afternoon.
